First Person Example in Safari

23 March 2015 16:25
Hello,

The First Person Example:
https://www.blend4web.com/tutorials/examples/firstperson/example.html

…is really impressive but for some reason it does not work in Safari, I think this is because Safari does not support the mouse cursor being used in this way.

Hopefully they will add this feature into Safari…

Hi, and welcome to the forum!
You are right about Safari. It really doesn't support the pointer_lock feature yet. We have a workaround for this case. We support dragging the screen when no pointer_lock available. You can see it in "The Farm" demo.

As of this example, we haven't added the workaround to simplify the tutorial. So. Yes, now it is not fully useful in Safari.

Hopefully Apple will add support for this feature!

I wonder if it is worth asking them on their forums to give them a nudge?

This is a nice idea. If the guys will see that the community is interested in the feature they'll surely work on it. It will be useful not only for Blend4Web but for any firstperson web-application.
